Dec, also 47, said: “We love watching fly on the wall shows like Drive To Survive which goes behind the scenes of F1 so thought it could be really fun to allow the cameras to see how we make Saturday Night Takeaway. I’d love to see Behind The Screens on more entertainment shows.”

Ant & Dec have been in the spotlight since they starred in Byker Grove in the early 1990s.
